Once the boundary I had considered sacred had been crossed, I found it harder and harder to refuse successive requests. Eventually I was doing it for everyone; it was automatic. I even wrote a script for it. It wasn't until a major conversion experience (deploying the remote library in Atlanta) that I regained the capability to say no with conviction, to stick to my guns. Now I've got 81 empty cells and 44 scratch volumes. I can reasonably hope that such sordid behavior is permanently in my past. - Allen S. Rout - The script is named '/var/tsm/bin/stupid-checkouts'
